VELAA MARINE CENTRE CORAL CARE PROJECT

The Maldives’ famous turquoise crystal clear waters wouldn’t be possible without the exquisite and fragile coral reefs. Often referred to as the ‘Rainforests of the Sea’ because of their richness in biodiversity. Coral reefs are the building blocks for shelter, protection, home and a food source for its inhabitants. Its success is measured through a perfect equilibrium for its survival.

We consider ourselves fortunate to be the guardians of the sea that encompasses our island home. We understand the need to safeguard such a precious and finite resource.

Our dedicated Marine Team is currently implementing numerous coral restoration programs in order to conserve our reef. One such program is our Coral Adoption Program.

VELAA MARINE CENTRE HOW CAN YOU HELP? ADOPT A CORAL DOME .

What is coral? Rock, animal or plant? Start your Coral Care Project with an introduction to corals to find out these answers, held by our resident Marine Biologist.

COLLECT AND ATTACH THE CORAL FRAGMENTS Join us on a house reef snorkel to find fragments of broken corals that can be used to attach to your coral dome and grow into large coral colonies.

ATTACH THE CORALS AND PLACE THE DOME Attach your collected coral fragments securely onto your coral dome. Then snorkel out with the dome to place in an optimal location for your corals to thrive.

Your conservation efforts will not go unnoticed, a coral adoption certificate will be given for your generosity to our reef, along with biannual updates of your corals development. On your next visit to Velaa our Marine Biologist will take you on a complementary coral observation snorkel, giving you the chance to re-attach corals if needed and observe the growth of your coral dome.

Coral adoption ...... US$ 340
